Chapter 642: Asking for help

Successfully sent away the second master of Zhujie Mountain, the fat man and a few others, Liang Qing only felt relieved and relaxed.

When he returned to his temporary cave mansion, he found that Shan and Bai Xuan were asking to see them, so they hurriedly let the two enter together.

"Say, what's the matter?" Liang Qing was already very familiar with these two people, but he didn't have any politeness, so he asked directly.

The two exchanged glances, and then Xiangshan whispered, "It's the three-pointed collar that is asking us for help." ”

"Oh...... Over there, the situation is very bad?" A strange look suddenly flashed on Liang Qing's face, he didn't expect that he had just fallen out and forced him to leave, and that side would be cheeky to ask for help, but now the facts are in front of him.

"I've received a lot of information about that side in the past few days, and it's really not very good over there, but in order not to bother Your Majesty, we didn't show this to Your Majesty, but this time the other party sent a letter asking for help, but the ministers didn't dare to be self-conscious...... Bai Xuan said carefully.

"Alas, you, I handed over the information to you, did you do that?" Liang Qing shook his head, and said to Bai Xuan with a slight reproach: "How can I hide the information because of my likes and dislikes?"

Bai Xuan immediately lowered his head and was silent, and Xiangshan suddenly hurriedly said, "Actually, I don't blame Bai Xuan. Nowadays, we have tens of millions of pieces of information every day, how can we present each one of them to Your Majesty for seeing? Those are all insignificant, because Bai Xuan did not report it, if it is really important information, he will not hide it. ”

Liang Qing also knew that Bai Xuan did know the severity, and after all, this was a talent to be used in the future, a pillar of the Ming Dynasty, and Liang Qing didn't blame him much, so he just nodded lightly and didn't blame him again.

"Let's talk about it. What the hell is going on over there!" Liang Qing asked lightly.

"According to the information that came back, the Demon Emperor originally agreed...... Now, except for Zhongjian Mountain and the surrounding radius of one or two hundred miles, all of them have lost control, and it is Zhongjian Mountain, and it is only relying on the formation to defend hard. I don't know when it will be breached. Bai Xuan told the story about the situation over there.

"Hmm?" After listening to Bai Xuan's words, Liang Qing frowned slightly, glanced at Xiangshan, smiled faintly, and asked: "I thought that it would be many years before there would be a day when we would be asked for us, but I didn't expect to be able to see this day so soon." ”

Xiangshan shook his head. sighed and said: "Actually, the situation over there has reached this point, but because of the problem of face, he didn't plan to ask us for help." It is said that the third uncle has planned to fight to the death, and if the situation is bad enough, he will perish with the three-pointed leader. This time, it was Xiong Er's personal request for help. ”

"Is it just Xiong Er's personal request for help?" Liang Qing was slightly stunned. Suddenly fell into deep thought.

After a while, Liang Qing asked Xiangshan: "Does the eldest brother think we should save it?"

Xiangshan said: "In the end. We are all family, and after all, we have all been deeply favored by the other side, and they can be unkind, but we must not be unjust, according to my will. But they must go to the rescue. ”

After listening to Xiangshan's words, Liang Qing was noncommittal, and just asked, "What if you go to the rescue and relieve them from the siege they are currently in?"

Hearing this, Xiangshan was also slightly stunned. He asked, "Your Majesty is not willing to help?"

"It's impossible to say that there is no mustard in the heart. Liang Qing sighed slightly and said: "However, as the saying goes, 'a teacher for one day, a father for life', there is a great favor to us over there, but I will not look at them because I have a problem in my heart." ”

"What does Your Majesty mean?" asked Xiangshan.

Liang Qing said: "I just want to ask Brother Xiangshan, what should we do after we help them lift the siege?"

"We've already reached this point over there, and after we've helped them out of the siege, if we don't leave people over there, they'll soon be in crisis again, and they'll be besieged again.

At that time, if we don't send troops to help, this aid will be in vain, but if we send troops to help, when will this back and forth end?

Besides, if I come here so many times, I won't be able to stand it.

However, if we keep the manpower, maybe they will suspect that we have ulterior motives and want to steal their little inheritance.

Moreover, we are also seriously understaffed now, even if we don't have enough to protect our own territory, where is there any manpower left for them?"

"This ......" Xiangshan suddenly couldn't answer.

After a while, Xiangshan asked again: "According to Your Majesty, what are we going to do?"

Liang Qing said: "The best way is to let them rejoin us, and then, all of them will be relocated, we will shrink our forces, let go of this place west of Longchuan River first, slowly accumulate strength, and then fight back in the future."

However, they must not be willing to make this proposal, and yes, I have nothing to do. ”

Xiangshan nodded and said, "The third uncle will not give up the three-pointed collar, and he will not be a family with us again." ”

After pondering for a moment, Liang Qing said: "Forget it, it's a big matter, let's convene the ministers to discuss and discuss, and listen to the opinions of the audience." ”

Xiangshan was stunned, and couldn't help but secretly smile bitterly: "Your Majesty has a deep heart in his heart, but when it comes to it, he doesn't want to help!"

Originally, it was just a few people discussing in private, even for the sake of his reputation, Liang Qing didn't dare to say that he would not rescue the three-pointed collar, and he didn't dare to say that he would watch the special sergeant die in battle, even if he didn't want to, Xiangshan could still say that he would send troops.

However, once the ministers were summoned for discussion, it was completely different.

Now the courtiers here in Daming, there are few old men with three pointed collars, among these people, Liang Qing's four younger brothers do not have a strong sense of belonging to the three pointed collars, plus the previous things, they have grievances against the special sergeants, and they will definitely not agree to send troops to busy.

For the rest, the highest status is just a supper, but because the strength is too poor, the supper doesn't have much right to speak.

The rest were all taken refuge in later, and half of them were Terran monks, but none of these people would really speak for the three-pointed collar, for the special priest and others.

In this way, the result of the collegial discussion will inevitably be to send troops to the rescue, and. At that time, Liang Qing can still be said to be the ministers who mean this, and he can't help it.

However, this matter is indeed a big deal, and it is also right to convene the ministers to discuss, and Xiangshan has no reason to stop it.

And. If in the past, Xiangshan's prestige with the strength of his first master could still change some, but now, the first master has become Liang Qing, in addition to Liang Qing, there are several who have cultivated more than Xiangshan.

Now that the Ming Dynasty is up and down, no one dares to disobey Xiangshan's orders on weekdays, but once it conflicts with Liang Qing's orders, few people will inevitably stand on his side.

So. Liang Qing decided to convene the ministers to discuss, and Xiangshan had already decided that Liang Qing was going to die and not be saved, and he could only agree.

From the helplessness at this time, Xiangshan suddenly felt that he had gone astray in the past few years, and further realized that in this world, cultivation and strength are fundamental. Without strength, everything is empty. So I thought to myself, "It seems that I should let go of some things and focus more on my cultivation." ”

"Big brother thinks it's inappropriate?" Liang Qing saw that Xiangshan was silent, and his eyes were still changing, so he immediately asked.

"No!" Xiangshan smiled and said, "That's it." The minister retired first and went to arrange for the gathering of the ministers. ”

Liang Qing saw that Xiangshan didn't object at all so he agreed to convene the ministers to discuss, but he was also slightly surprised, but at this time, it was impossible for him to ask Xiangshan why didn't you object, so. He just nodded faintly.

Seeing Xiangshan go out like this, Bai Xuan on the side suddenly felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

As a bystander, he witnessed the whole process of the changing relationship between Liang Qing and Xiangshan step by step, and he also knew that all these changes came from the rapid growth of Liang Qing's cultivation.

Thinking that when he first met Liang Qing, his cultivation was far better than Liang Qing, and now he felt a little uncomfortable and a little lost in his heart.

At the same time, he was like a mountain, secretly determined that he must spend more time on cultivation and strive to improve his cultivation.

In fact, up and down the Ming Dynasty, it was not only the two of them who were stimulated by Liang Qing, but half of the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty were greatly enhanced by Liang Qing's enthusiasm for cultivation.

Therefore, the existence of such a demon as Liang Qing has greatly accelerated the improvement of Daming's strength.

Of course, this is also a big tomorrow, and most of the courtiers are young, if all the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty are ten thousand years old demons, thousands of years of human race monks, stuck in a certain realm for thousands of years, and there is no hope of progress, no matter how exciting Liang Qing is, it will not have much effect.

didn't mention it, but said that after a while, all the important ministers who could come back in a short period of time were all gathered together.

Liang Qing ordered Bai Xuan to tell him about the three-pointed collar, and then asked, "Everyone, let's talk about it, should we send troops to help the three-pointed collar now? If so, how should we send troops? After lifting their siege, what should we do." ”

To send troops, or not to send troops? How to send troops? What should be done after the siege is lifted?

Everyone in the hall was thinking about this question for a moment.

However, unlike Xiangshan's imagination, these courtiers of Daming are all changing their faces, obviously facing a difficult choice, no one knows how much consideration he has experienced in his heart at this moment, and he did not immediately jump out against sending troops to rescue without thinking.

It has been a while since the sky returned to the Ming Dynasty, his strength is profound, his brother Vulture is also in a high position, and the masters stationed in several cities in the east are all looking at him as the head of the horse, so he has a lot of power in the Ming Dynasty.

He has guarded the eastern gateway for Daming Town for so many years, and he has contributed and worked hard, and this time he has made great contributions to the emptying of several cities in the east of Jiaozhou.

At present, his status is only under two or three people such as Xiangshan and Jinfang, but his influence is even better, yes, he has a lot less scruples when he speaks, so after thinking for a while, he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that troops should be sent." ”

Liang Qing looked at him with a smile, but he was waiting for his next step.

I only listened to Cangkong Dao: "We have actually embarked on the road of steaming the world, and there is no advance or retreat." But they can't be satisfied with the status quo and become conservative.

Send troops to aid the Triple Leader, but we can subdue some of the monsters besieging the Triple Leader, and after the siege is completely lifted, as long as we send someone to lobby, the Triple Tip Collar, such as Xiong Er, may also turn to us.

In addition, we can also sweep the area around the three-pointed collar again, and move the remaining demons and human races and the front part of wealth there to our Daming.

In this way, it is not without a small contribution to my Daming. ”

Liang Qing nodded, and did not comment, and what Cangkong should have said had been said, and the meaning had been expressed, and he immediately retreated.

Cangkong just retreated, and at this time, Jinfang suddenly stood up and said: "Yes, if you act according to what Cangkong Daoist said, it can indeed make a small difference to Da Ming."

However, this is only a small supplement, without this supplement, my Ming will develop slowly for a few years at most, but it will not shake the fundamentals.

However, if you do it, it will leave a great hidden danger to Daming, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will make Daming fall into a place of no return. ”

Cangkong knew that Jinfang had a close relationship with Liang Qing, so he didn't reprimand her angrily, but said, "I want to hear about it." ”

Jin Fang said: "I won't talk about it, it's to persuade the people like Xiong Er on the side of the three-tip collar to turn to us again."

If the people of the three-pointed collar are rescued, if they are willing to come over and re-serve, what position does Your Majesty plan to give them?

If it's low, will they be willing?

If they are allowed to occupy a high position, can His Majesty guarantee that the same thing as before will not happen?

Especially the special sergeant, if he is rescued, and he points fingers at His Majesty, will His Majesty listen or not?

Don't talk about others, just say that Xiong Er, who asked for help this time, if he comes, what position will His Majesty give him?

If we reuse him, where will we be left to follow him like this and never leave him?"

Hearing this, Cangkong was silent for a moment and said, "But I didn't think it through." ”

Jinfang immediately said: "Daoyou's words are serious. ”

At this time, Liang Qing's fourth brother Liang Hong also stood up and said, "That's a good point.

Before, I had already defeated the Tang Dynasty, and the situation was very good, so I could have sent troops to plunder Jingyang Erzhou, and the national strength was even better, because they got to this point.

If Your Majesty saves them, he will repay his grievances with virtue, so how can he repay virtue?

If outsiders think that His Majesty is weak and can be bullied, and let the people below think that Daming is short of people anyway, no matter what they do, they will always forgive and accept them, then in the future, no force will dare to fight Daming, and everyone below will dare to betray Daming at will and damage the interests of Daming?

Therefore, I am not in favor of sending troops to rescue either. ”

Seeing that Jinfang and Liang Hong both opened their mouths to stop them, Xiangshan couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and only said secretly, I'm afraid that this matter is going to be yellow.

Sure enough, the ministers, who were still hesitating, heard the clear opposition of these two people, and immediately made up their minds.

Ling Yunzi, the head of the Terran monks, immediately stepped forward and said: "Those monsters besieging over there are mostly ancient demons who escaped, all of them are highly skilled, and if we help over there, we will definitely suffer a lot of damage."

Moreover, these big demons are unruly one by one, but they will not easily subdue anyone, even if we capture them alive, I am afraid we will not be able to accept a few people.

In the area east of Jiaozhou, most of the population and wealth are concentrated in the southeast and south, but the north has long been emptied.

Both sides have actually been emptied long ago, and even if they are swept away, they will not gain much.

I hope Your Majesty will think twice. (To be continued......)
